• Bring back the Fairness Doctrine
    Since Reagan repealed the Fairness Doctrine in the mid 1980's, our airwaves have been chocked full of lies, deliberate misrepresentations and slander. Presented in a format imitating real news, it suggest these misleading comments are true and unbiased. It has created a dangerous arena for balanced political equality. It is time to reinstate this law and get back to serving the public's interest.

  • If You Think You're Covered By Your Homeowner's Insurance Policy - Think Again
    I had a legitimate homeowner's insurance claim denied. The Insurance Commissioner's office in Georgia is useless. All they do is make sure the legal requirements are met. Even if the denial is based on nonsense, they have no building inspector who can look at the claim and make any determination. No lawyer would take the case because the homeowner can't collect anything except the cost of the repairs. That means the homeowner has to pay the attorney out of what is won, and what's left isn't enough to make the repairs. The insurance companies know this, so it is in their best interest to deny claims. They lose nothing and stand to make interest on the money for as long as they keep it.

  • Only Police & Federal Agents should have guns!
    Approximately 1,379,400 people died in US hospitals in 2007, the most recent year for which statistics are available. This averages roughly 3,779.2 deaths per day. How many people would be alive today if guns were not available to citizens that were not police or federal agents? What about your love one or some one you know. Because guns are made available many people are dead and sure to die, today.

  • Wells Fargo deceptive loan solutions
    I am trying to get my loan adjusted with Wells Fargo, and I like millions of other folks we are outside the existing Bank Settlement agreement the government gave the 5 major banks. I would like to request a special review board to be assigned to our cases as the limit placed on the loan mortgage amount ($729,000) eligible for mandatory loan modification Settlements does not reflect the badly inflated pre 2005 housing costs in areas like Los Angeles and San Francisco. Millions of us have no rights nor hope of being assisted with our mortgages in an honest manner. It is not fair. Wells Fargo is being very deceptive in assisting me with my payment challenges, including refusing to disclose the penalties and court costs on my loan, only communicating by phone and lying about what I said in letters subsequently sent to me. All 5 banks (B of A, Wells Fargo, Citibank, Chase, Ally Financial) should to be held accountable to make reasonable loan adjustments for this group of mortgages. We desperately need protection rights and a watch dog group to help us.
